ABSTRACT:
An antenna design of compact dimensions is provided by incorporating the antenna structure into an integrated circuit or small circuit module. A radiation pattern adjustment mechanism permits dynamic, real-time adjustment of the antenna pattern in response to motion, repositioning, handovers, or other changing conditions. Pursuant to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the antenna includes a plurality of substantially conductive elements embedded into or formed on the integrated circuit. At least one of the conductive elements is coupled to a radiation pattern adjustment mechanism in the form of a switching diode or relay. The antenna elements are arranged in a manner so as to provide parasitic interaction.
